Ok, so I am not dating and decided to wait on that for quite a while - many months at the least. This guy, however, that I am "friends" with on Facebook through mutual friends, liked one of my posts yesterday. I did not recognize him, so I sent him a message asking if we have ever met in person and how we know each other. It is through mutual friends and we've never met before. But we started talking and had a really nice conversation. He was born the same year as me, is divorced with two older kids, is single and enjoys hiking and the same music as me. I told him I am not dating right now and that I want to rebuild myself and rediscover ME. However, we ended the conversation by agreeing to perhaps meet in person to see music sometime. And what's really weird for me - he has a very different face than my ex husband, but the same exact hair cut and goatee, with brown hair and brown eyes, just like my ex. WEIRD.

I will just be friends with this man, if we do become friends and get along. I'm going to stick to my rule of no dating until I feel fully healed. I still have a long way to go.
